Discipline, determinat­ion will keep us at the top – Onuwa

- From Dotun Omisakin, Lagos

Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries FC midfielder, Onuwa Chukwuka, has revealed that discipline and determinat­ion are the two factors that will contribute to team existence at the top of the Nigerian Profession­al Football League (NPFL).

The Lagos-based side climbed to the top of the NPFL log after a 2-1 win over Rivers United in a reschedule­d match on Wednesday.

The victory, which was the team’s seventh home win of the season, also saw NPFL top scorer, Stephen Odey scoring a brace to take his goals tally to 12.

Onuwa, whose impact in the pulsating encounter could be underestim­ated, said his team need to remain focused, determined and more discipline­d in their approach on and off the pitch to remain top the league standings.

“I am very happy with the victory. It was not an easy game for us but we thank God and our Daddy in the Lord Dr.DK Olukoya for his support towards the team.

“What we need to do now is to remain focus because to be at the top of the table brings more challenges but I believe with discipline and determinat­ion we will remain there for long.

“One of the things that will help us to remain on top till the end of the season is to continue to keep playing the way we started, we don’t need to change the style of our game regardless of anything and also we need to prepare our minds for tougher challenges,” said the creative midfielder.
